Who's ethics are we talking about? Are you a church going lad?

Or have someone make an exact copy of one and give it to me.
Fuck man. Don't you think Pepsi and Coke taste the same? Couldn't a large
corporation come up with a new artist's name and change the packaging but
redistribute music from another artist, just like Pepsi and Coke. Maybe
you should attack other regions of this anti-copy pursuit you are on,
because I'm pretty damn sure that the money made on Cola is way bigger than
that made on a really limited edition "Space" recording? Maybe the guy who
invented cola should be collecting it all. Yes, I do know that there are
copyright laws that protect that now. But who really gauges the losses
made on bootlegs and things. You can't! I just learned that in Economics.
Underground markets are untrackable! Theirfor everything Microsoft, Sony
Music, etc. tells you about Bootlegs is false! I'll personally send the
KLF the $3 they would have made off of me getting a copy of "Space", saves
the record copany production and overhead involved. However, I feel that
they might just burn it on the millenium (hopefully the real millenium,
Dec. 31, 2000) with another million pounds they have stashed away.
